Our thinking concerning our “legitimate interest” to process your personal data

As you may see above, much of our processing of your personal data is based on that we think we have a legitimate interest to handle your personal data. We have put some good thinking into this and concluded that we didn’t think it fair to you (as an individual) to base our processing of your data on your consent. We would not want you to feel forced to consent to something you have limited control over, as opposed to consumer apps etc. which you may choose to use outside of work. From our point of view, Connectitude is a B2B service and you – as the contact person of our customer (or potential customer) – merely submit your personal data as part of your job for your employer/commissioner. In order to be perfectly transparent with you, we do not use your personal data to monitor you, as an individual, but merely to serve the needs of our customer.

How we protect your information

We adopt appropriate data processing practices and security measures aligned with industry standard to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its Users is made via a SSL secured communication channel, and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures.

Sharing your personal information

We do not sell, trade, or rent Users personal data to others. We may use third party service providers to help us operate our business and the Site or administer activities on our behalf, such as sending out newsletters or surveys (these suppliers are called “Data Processors”). Any such sharing of personal data to Data Processors is limited to the fulfilment of the purposes set out in this Policy. Some of our Data Processors have business operations in a non-EU / EEA country (so-called “third countries”). In case we transfer your personal data to Data Processors in such third country, we will take appropriate safeguards and ensure that transferred personal data is handled in accordance with applicable data protection regulations. For example, we may sign the standard contractual clauses established by the European Commission regarding the protection of personal integrity with the Data Processor in question.

Third party websites

Users may find advertising or other content on our Site that link to the sites and services of our partners, suppliers, advertisers, sponsors, licensors and other third parties. We do not control the content or links that appear on these sites and are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to, or from, our Site. In addition, these sites or services, including their content and links, may be constantly changing. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies. Browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link to our Site, is subject to that website’s own terms and policies.

Your rights in relation to personal data processed by us

You have several legal rights aimed at safeguarding your personal integrity in relation to the processing of your Personal Data. Below, we have summarized these rights to help you understand them and how you may exercise these rights. However, since the legal field is under continuous development, this list may not be exhaustive. For the avoidance of doubt, any additional rights following from new laws, regulations, or industry practices will apply in addition to our summary.

Right to information. Once per calendar year, you are entitled to, by signed application, obtain a transcript of our processing of your Personal Data, free of charge. Please send any such request to email address set out below. Please mark your email: “Request for information concerning data processing.”

Right to rectification. We will in our sole discretion, or upon your request, correct your Personal Data that is found to be incorrect or misleading.

Right to be forgotten. Should you choose to claim your right to be forgotten, we will delete your Personal Data as soon as possible. In addition to this, we will delete your Personal Data as soon as possible if:

  • You object to our processing and there are no overriding legitimate reasons that outweigh your right to personal integrity, or
  • The Personal Data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation set out in Union- or Member State law, or otherwise when your Personal Data has been unlawfully processed.
  • Your data was collected when you were younger than 18 years old and you do not want this data to be processed by us (provided there’s no other legal ground that overrides this).

Right to restriction. In some cases, you may require that the processing of your personal data is limited. In this case, limitation means that the personal data will be tagged so that it only processed for limited purposes in the future. As an example, you may invoke your right to limitation if you think that our current records of your personal information are incorrect, and you have requested a correction. In such cases, you may also request that our processing of your personal data is limited while investigating the accuracy of the personal data.

Right to object. You are entitled to object to such processing of your personal data that is performed based on (in our opinion) our legitimate interest. If you want to file an objection, you need to specify what processing you are objecting. If you chose to object to processing, we may continue to process your personal data only if we can show that there really are legitimate reasons why your personal data must be processed by us, where these reasons must overrule your interest to protection for your personal integrity.

Right to information concerning transfer outside the EEA. You have the right to learn about which safety measures that apply to establish and maintain an adequate level of safety for your Personal Data when this information is transferred outside the EEA. If you would like to learn more about this, please contact us with your request using the e-mail address set out below.

Right to file complaint with the supervisory authority. You have the right to file complaints concerning our processing of your Personal Data with the supervisory authority. In Sweden, this is Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten.

Right to damages. If you have suffered an injury due to that your personal data have been processed in violation of applicable data protection regulations, you may be entitled to damages. In such cases, after a written request, you may seek damages from us or bring an action for damages in court.
